"− The proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amends the existing regulation on bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) catch documentation. One of the main reasons why the proposed amendment was tabled is the vicissitudes of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT), which is also responsible for bluefin tuna fishing in the Adriatic Sea. This Commission was set up as an organisation to combat unregulated fishing through the use of alternative measures. These included imposing trade measures on countries whose vessels fished for endangered species in breach of ICCAT regulations. I mentioned the fact that there is already a catch documentation programme for bluefin tuna, the Bluefin Catch Document (BCD), which is probably the most complex documentation programme in existence for a single fish species. Nonetheless, I am very much in favour of the proposal to extend and improve that programme, enhancing it with new data such as catch data, information on the exporter or seller, transhipment information, farm details, harvest information and trade information. Lastly, I am very pleased to know that such an initiative, if adopted, would be in accordance with the European Union’s much-publicised desire to abolish illegal, undeclared and unregulated fishing."@en1
